Shortly after being named the next “Bachelor,” Colton visited “The Ellen Show” where Ellen DeGeneres blatantly discussed his virginity, asking what he would be doing throughout the infamous fantasy suite portion of his season.

“You can do more in the fantasy suites than just have sex,” Underwood told Ellen. “I mean we can play board games. We can hang out. You know, the little things, finding out the little things about them is some of the most interesting things. Because you guys get to see the big storylines on TV. I’m looking forward to, ‘What’s your favorite snack? What kind of dog do you like?’ Just like the little everyday things that you guys really don’t care about, but I [do].”

Fans were also quick to notice the slight hint ABC threw towards Colton’s virginity in the new promo poster as it reads, “What does he have to lose?”
